(b) “Perfectivity/Imperfectivity”. This type of aspectuality hinges on the question of whether the SoA [state of affairs] is presented from an outside point of view, as one complete, indivisible whole (Perfective), or from an inside point of view, as being non-complete or in progress (Imperfective).
